Dr. Seuss Birthday Wording

syllable En français vous plait

Back to news that today I finally enrolled in French courses at the university. When we decided to immigrate was the month of October and unfortunately the course had begun a month earlier, but this time I slept on my laurels and today I went early to make a row laaaaarrgaaaa more than 4 hours to have a place.

And finally I did, I begin this Saturday from 8 am to 1 pm, for 6 months. Start on the first level again that although I have enough knowledge to pass along the course of 2 years ago, I decided to reinforce and start all over again. And best of all is that my teacher is native. Unfortunately

Martin works on Saturday morning and part de la tarde y no podrá ir conmigo, pero quedamos que los domingos será el día en que yo le comparta lo que aprendí del día anterior. Estoy muy emocionada! finalmente veo movimiento.

Tout va bien!

Quebec. Part I

En estos días me han preguntado acerca de la información que tengo sobre el lugar al que quiero ir, cómo es el clima, tamaño, historia, etc. Y me he encontrado con que sé cosas muy generales pero nada en particular, así que decidí empezar una serie de posts relacionados con este tema a modo de conocer un poco más esta provincia de Canadá.

Yo sé que la mayoría of those who read this know perfectly the information I offer, but I do it for those who are just in the process of deciding to immigrate to another country and perhaps this will be useful to evaluate an option. Hope you can help with anything.


Québec is one of the ten provinces of the Canadian federation. The rest of them are: Alberta, British Columbia, Manitoba, New Brunswick, Newfoundland and Labrador, Nova Scotia, Ontario, Prince Edward Island and Saskatchewan. The three territories are the Northwest Territories, Nunavut and the Yukon.

Québec occupies a vast continental peninsula washed by the North Atlantic. Its territory of almost 1.7 million square kilometers is equivalent to three times the size of Spain and five times that of Japan, and its extension beyond the state's largest United States. Half of this land is covered by forest.

water is a region dotted with a million lakes and rivers. It is crossed by the Saint Lawrence River, which runs a distance of nearly 1,200 km before emptying into an estuary of 100 km wide. Main river axis North American continent, the Saint Laurent is also a major waterway in the world.

The province of Quebec is located east of the province of Ontario and Hudson Bay, south of Nunavut and Davis Strait, west of the Maritimes and northern Labrador and several U.S. states (New York, Vermont, New Hampshire and Maine).

Its capital is Quebec City (Ville de Quebec) and its most important and populated metropolis is Montreal.

The flag of Quebec is divided into 4 parts blue by a white cross. In each of these four parts has a white lily is the flower of the province. Fleur de lis has been a traditional symbol of France. Previously, when Canada was part of the British Empire his flag was another, and this is a flag based on British shows.

The "Coat of Arms of Her Majesty in Right of the Province of Quebec" was assigned by royal decree of Queen Victoria (Victoria of the United Kingdom) on May 26, 1868. This was amended by the Government of Quebec on December 9, 1939.

The shield is divided into 3 horizontal areas: The top field shows three golden lilies on a blue background, symbolizing the real France. The middle field shows a lion warden trainee in a red background, a symbol of British royalty. The lower field shows three maple leaves on a gold background, symbolizing Canada. Above the shield is a crown and under it there is a silver scroll with the motto provincial "Je me souviens" (I remember).

The Ville de Quebec and its environs have 700.000 inhabitants. Cradle of the French presence in North America, the historic district of Quebec City was declared a UNESCO World Heritage in 1985, is the first urban center in North America to have received this recognition.

Québec City is primarily an administrative city, tourism and services. However, in recent years, has initiated a major technological shift by establishing research centers and companies in various high technology sectors such as optics, photonics, defense and security, and electronics.

When compared with other cities the same size, Québec City is the most competitive in the world for the cost of installation and operation of enterprises.

The agglomeration of Montréal has more than 3,600,000 inhabitants and is the land with many different cultural communities. It is also the economic and financial center in Quebec. Ranks third in North America after San Francisco and Seattle, by the density of jobs in high technology. In 2006, Montreal was declared a City of Design by UNESCO. Photo taken from Flickr .

in the mainland are four universities (two Francophone and two Anglophone), and various schools and institutes attached to these high houses of study. The university network Montréal is renowned for their careers in aerospace, bio-pharmaceuticals and information technology and communications. Moreover, Montréal is the second region of North America, after Boston, in the proportion of students per capita. Montréal is a safe and friendly city, scene of many cultural and sporting events of great importance, such as the International Jazz Festival, the Festival Juste pour rire, the Francofolies, the Grand Prix of Formula 1 and the Fair Bike Tour de l'île.

absurd laws in Canada

Looking for information and news about Canada found these old laws still in force on Canadian soil and that somehow nobody has bothered to correct.

I make the clarification that I am not aware that they are true because the sources do not cite the articles or the laws that are established. If someone could corroborate the information I will appreciate it very much. This is public because it made me very funny that in our times still how are you contemplate things.

Fort Qu'Appelle, Quebec: It is illegal for a teen walking in the main street of downtown with shoes undone.

Anywhere in Canada: Paying 26 cents with coins of 1 c is illegal, the limit is 25. If paying with coins of 5 c the limit is 5 CAD. If you want to pay with coins to 10 c the maximum amount allowed is 10 CAD. What a fool!

radio stations: State law has established that every song played on the 5th should be a Canadian born citizen.

Alberta: If a prisoner is released from prison have the right to a gun and a horse to leave the city.

Ontario: The cars have the speed limit 80 km / hr, but cyclists can lead to the speed you want. (?)

Any Province Canada: Nobody has the right to watch or listen to encrypted transmissions if they are not licensed by the Canadian Government, which basically means it is illegal to use satellite systems such as "Direct TV".

New Brunswick: It is illegal to buy cigarettes for minors, but you can give them if not in a public place.

London, Ontario: You can not let the grass in your yard to grow more than an inch and a half. If not met, the council will come and cut it and impose a $ 200 CAD for the job.

Nova Scotia: Not allowed a person watering the grass in the rain.

Cobourg, Ontario: If you have a drinking fountain (for animals) in your front yard, it must be filled every day at 5 am!

Guelph, Ontario: The city has been classified as an area where you can not urinate. (And then how do you do?)

Toronto, Ontario: It is illegal to pull a horse dead in the street Young (exists?) On Sunday (!)

Montreal, Quebec: You can not wash your car on the street or parked So block your way out.

Ottawa, Ontario: You can not eat ice cream on Bank Street (there?) On Sunday.

How Much Does It Cost To Remove A Tumour



Today I received word that a job he had applied for more than a month was given to another person. The truth is that I accepted the news with a sigh, thinking it's the same old thing, and I hate to see cases like these, or even living it, because I know that is our daily bread. I feel sorry because the pay was going to be very good.

And see that I would not have missed this opportunity imported from @ someone better qualified than I, but gave it to an educator ( female) and I did covering the profile in the IT area. The worst thing is what she did in order to become engaged: almost anything except go to bed-EYE- Labor Secretary (female ) of union-union-which promoted the streets. It appears that the company had decided it needed to hire staff but received favors from the educator said that I was working in another place and what better to hire another.


few months ago I was talking to a family close to me who works in government and has a very good job. We talked about our country and she said yes believed that someday we were going to change. I said that would not happen because more than 100 millions of minds and hearts have to change and I made it easier for all of us continue on this path that the change direction.

I still think the same and today more than ever I feel that as a nation will not change. This evil is at all levels, not only dominates the higher spheres, not only those who manage the destiny of our countries or their accomplices. Has contaminated virtually all of society.

Last week I was reading the blog of Lydia Cacho, a well-known Mexican journalist who dared to denounce pedophile networks in our country related to the highest political circles, business and social. She mentioned in the last of the articles that many countries had offered him political asylum (and be covering the requirements) to continue to denounce the criminals and the violation of their rights when they arrested illegally.
She firmly said that after much thought he decided to follow in our country because, like my family, confident that in the not too distant future, Mexico would change and she wanted to be here to celebrate.

I do, I do not want to go here or want to celebrate when my countrymen choose to do the right thing. I do not rejoice when the rulers and officials decide to stop stealing and do the job for which they were elected: to serve. I do not want to give thanks that I was finally sold to a kilo kilos or liters to liter, no sigh of relief that I finally hired me because I have ratings according to the post and not because I agreed to degrade for a job.

love my country but hate what we have (or have been) developed and that is why I prefer to be spectator from another box. Now more than ever I think we should continue with our plans because I want a better future for my family, I want you tomorrow my son will find that have chosen another partner before him because he decided to sell to your boss, or worse, that he be corrupted by the need and the system. Just the thought terrifies me.

Finally, there are still other pending job offers and I hope that somewhere there will be people who are honest enough to hire me for my education and experience.
